Eagles vs. Chargers Showdown: Can Philly Ignite a Comeback or Will LA Seal Their Fate?

One way to get Barkley back on track could be to change the kinds of runs being called. 

Throughout his career, Barkley has been an excellent runner behind zone blocking, using patience and vision to pick a hole and then exploding through it. 

This season, however, he has been very unproductive on zone runs. Barkley is averaging 2.88 yards per carry on inside and outside zone over the last four weeks. 

Instead of calling zone as frequently, the Eagles may be better served by favoring the other family of run schemes, gap runs, which sometimes feature pulling lineman and are designed for the running back to aim toward a particular gap.
